The invention relates to a gemcitabine hydrochloride purifying method. The gemcitabine hydrochloride purifying method comprises the following steps: a), dissolving a gemcitabine hydrochloride coarse product into water, regulating the pH of the solution to 8-9 by adding alkali, stirring and reacting, and extracting to obtain gemcitabine; b), dissolving the gemcitabine into an alcohol solution, with the concentration of 0.1-0.2g / mL, adding activated carbon, filtering, and collecting filtrate; c), separating the filtrate with a preparing chromatographic column, wherein a fluid phase used by the chromatographic column is acetone or acetonitrile and a hydrochloric acid solution, the volume ratio of acetone or acetonitrile to the hydrochloric acid solution is 30-50: 70-50, and a stationary phase filler is silica or aluminum oxide; collecting filtrate; and drying to obtain a gemcitabine hydrochloride refined product. Through acid-base reaction, activated carbon adsorption, and separation and purification of the preparing chromatographic column, the purity of the gemcitabine hydrochloride is improved, the quality of a prepared product is optimized and the safety of clinical medicine is ensured; and the method is simple in process and low in cost and is applicable to industrial production.
